    Description

    hi! it has been a while without hosting people at home, and now it's time to do it again by having a different project !
    during the first hosting-era the target was learning english, the second one will face with rebuilding a kind of "tore down" woodland house and with the routine of our "hobby farm"
    so we need help!

    we are a family who chose to live in country side with a healthy and outdoorsy lifestyle. we have a huge vegetable garden, grass fields and some animals (the team is now formed by donkeys, a mule, two cows, goats and chickens)
    we do spend a plenty of time at home and we like it!

    so if you like our style, if you like countryside and if you would like to help us with the project, come here for having a nice stay

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    we really love cultural exchange and this is the most important reason because we do all this!
    here could be nice to come for learning about our environment and about the way locals use it and coexist with it.
    learning about woodworking (i have a nice wood shop too), about the animals and the non-intensive farming are the topics you will face with here

    Help

    hosting people means offer to them a possibility for doing something in a enjoyable way. at our home there is always something that need to be done and if these activities fit with you and your skill could be nice do it together!

  • Languages

    Languages spoken
    English: Fluent
    Italian: Fluent

    This host offers a language exchange
    As i said, we spent months for learning english, so even if, this time that is not the main target, it would be great keep learning it! beside for all people that have a crave for learning Italian, we are good teachers (Ste is a teacher indeed!)

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    fortunately our house is quite big and there is a guest room (we also have an independent house wing for our guest, it needs a little refurbishing, but it could be used for accomodation)
    Part of this family is vegetarian and another part is not! we cook a lot and there is no problem to host people having food requirements (e.g. vegetarian, vegan and so on!)

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    we have already hosted, mostly for languages (learning english and teaching Italian), now our speaking skill is a little bit better so we can widen our horizons.
    our expectations are that you will be able to share time with us on a mutual respect relationship, helping a bit for having nice time toghether
